Impact Abreu has been involved in a pair of collisions over the last three days. He didn't miss a start after crashing into Hunter Dozier along the first base line Friday but will miss at least three this time around after sliding into home plate to score the winning run Sunday. X-rays were negative, but an MRI revealed inflammation serious enough that the White Sox have already ruled him out until Friday. Andrew Vaughn will get to spend some time at first base in his absence, opening up more starts in the outfield for players like Danny Mendick and Leury Garcia, who will occupy the corners Monday against the Twins.

José Abreu - Day off Monday Abreu is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.
Impact Abreu was involved in a scary collision with Hunter Dozier along the first base line Friday and exited the game, but he was right back in the lineup the next day and went 2-for-4 in both weekend games against the Royals. Given that he looked clearly healthy over the weekend, it appears as though his off day Monday is a routine one. Andrew Vaughn will start at first base in his absence, with Leury Garcia starting in left field.

Lance Lynn - Looks good to start Tuesday Lynn (hand) is listed as the White Sox's probable pitcher for Tuesday's game against the Twins.
Impact In his most recent outing May 13 against this same Twins squad, Lynn came away with his third win in as many starts, but not before taking a comebacker off his right hand during the game. The White Sox sent him in for precautionary X-rays after the outing that revealed no structural damage, so the 34-year-old looks like he'll be good to go for his upcoming turn through the rotation without any limitations. Lynn has been exceptional throughout his first season in Chicago, going 4-1 while posting a 1.30 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 44:11 K:BB across 34.2 innings.
